tried both: only hosts file, or dns server for puplic addresses and hosts file for private addresses

checked name resolution in both cases, worked fine. One time I made a mistake and in this case the vipca log file shows a name resolution error. After correcting my mistake this error message was gone and my original error message came back.

There are several guide within the 10g documentation, for example the "Clusterware and RAC Administration and Deployment Guide.pdf" or "Real Application Clusters Quick Installation Guide for Oracle Database Standard Edition for Windows.pdf" and so on. I did the installation steps according to this guides.
